Telehealth 
Differently

Now Accepting
Rural & Remote Referrals

At Hunter Coast Therapy we do Telehealth a little bit differently to what most people assume. We understand the benefits of Telehealth and sometimes face to face therapy can be difficult. We use technology to ensure you achieve your goals. Our Telehealth sessions come in many different shapes and forms. Most importantly, so you have access to high quality services from the comfort of your home. Wherever you are in the country. 

​

Some examples of our Telehealth tricks include:

  • Using screen share

  • Interactive technology

  • Movement games

  • Mobile devices

  • Video and camera functions

  • Supportive resources

  • 1:1 support with experienced and dedicated therapists.

 

We may provide URL links, instructions or resources prior to your appointment. We can also request your carers, parents or other supports be present to assist. Hunter Coast Therapy will work with you to arrange any props or equipment needed.

We are working to break down barriers to healthcare and embrace the future of allied health services for all participants across the lifespan. Contact us to learn more about our Telehealth services and see how we can help, no matter the distance.
